  1. 1. A beta-phosphoglucomutase in carbohydrate metabolism of Lactococcus lactis

    Författare :Ny Qian; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mykologi; virologi; bakteriologi; Mikrobiologi; mycology; gene regulation; beta-phosphoglucomutase; maltose metabolism; lactate; metabolic engineering; alpha-phosphoglucomutase; Lactococcus lactis; Microbiology; virology; bacteriology; Biochemistry; Metabolism; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Phosphoglucomutase (PGM) catalyzes the reversible conversion of glucose 1-phosphate to glucose 6-phosphate. Two distinct forms of PGM have been purifed and charactierized in Lactococcus lactis growing on maltose: one specific for the alpha-isomer, and the other specific for the beta-isomer of glucose 1-phosphate.

  3. 2. Mannan-hydrolysis by hemicellulases: enzyme-polysaccharide interaction of a modular beta-mannanase

    Författare :Per Hägglund; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metabolism; Biochemistry; hemicellulase; beta-mannanase; carbohydrate-binding modules; Biokemi; metabolism;

    Sammanfattning : The enzymatic degradation of plant polysaccharides is a process of fundamental importance in nature which involves a wide range of enzymes. In this work, the structure and function of hemicellulose-degrading enzymes was investigated. The focus was on a beta-mannanase (TrMan5A) produced by the filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei.

  4. 3. Functional Proteome analysis of the molecular mechanism of (myo)fibroblast differentiation

    Författare :Johan Malmström; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; fibroblast myofibroblast extracellular matrix asthma COPD PDGF TGF-beta heparan sulfate proteoglycans proteomics mass spectrometry MALDI ESI; Metabolism; Biochemistry; Biokemi; metabolism;

    Sammanfattning : Tissue remodeling is observed in several physiological conditions such as embryogenesis, senescence, wound healing and pregnancy, as well as in several pathological conditions such as fibrosis and tumorgenesis. Fibroblasts play a key role in this tissue remodeling due to their capability of altering the turnover of the extracellular matrix. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Skeletal muscle metabolism in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease : A study of carbohydrate and fat metabolism

    Författare :Per Jacobsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) deterioration of skeletal muscle metabolism is reported in both respiratory and non-respiratory muscles. This deterioration may contribute to both the development of respiratory failure and general disability often seen in severe COPD patients. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Macromolecular interactions, Consequences on carbohydrate metabolism

    Författare :Sandra Matic; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; macromolecular interactions; sucrose synthase; macromolecular crowding; cytoskeleton; BY-2 tobacco cells; alamethicin; aqueous polymer two-phase partitioning;

    Sammanfattning : Most cells are crowded with solutes, enzymes, nucleic acids, structural proteins and membranes. Crowding promotes macromolecular interactions and determines major properties of the cellular environment such as viscosity, diffusion and inhomogeneity. LÄS MER
